Life learned early on to recognize itself.

Politicians need a better understanding of global ecology. We need to be freed from our species-specific arrogance. No evidence exists that we are chosen, the unique species for which all the others were made. Nor are we the most important one because we are so numerous, powerful and dangerous.

The fewer species there are and the fewer species we know about, the fewer questions we even know to ask.

All I ask is that we compare human consciousness with spirochete ecology.

The urgency to mate persists in all people as in all other mammals because of the evolutionary drive to continue the species, the inborn imperative for genes to reproduce and hormonal differences that evolved over millions of years.

I was taught over and over again that the accumulation of random mutations led to evolutionary change - led to new species. I believed it until I looked for evidence.

Natural selection eliminates and maybe maintains, but it doesn't create.
